Book Review: Posts of a Mid-Century Kid
Posts of a Mid-Century Kid – Doing my Best, Having Fun by Ann Vigola Anderson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A charming ramble of childhood memories, interspersed with thoughts about present-day life. The author mentions that this is a collection of Facebook posts, which she was encouraged to collect into a book. I’m always cheered by a collection of memoirs, as I know these books become a treasure for the immediate family, and give a glimpse of life in a certain time and place to readers. Those who recall the 1950s and 1960s will find points of connection. Readers who grew up in Kansas will enjoy this book too,
My thanks to author Ann Vigola Anderson, Anamcara Press, and NetGalley for allowing me to read a digital advance review copy of this book. This review is my honest and unbiased opinion.
